In the anime

Doduo's first appearance was a cameo at Prof. Oak's labratory in Showdown at the Poké Corral. This Doduo belonged to Gary Oak. Gary's Doduo eventually evolved into a Dodrio.

In Bad to the Bone, Otoshi tried to fight off Team Rocket with a Doduo, but he was failing miserably until his Marowak decided to return.

In the manga

Prior to her appearance in Pokémon Special, Yellow is given a Doduo that eventually evolves in Volume 7. The person who gave her Doduo is revealed in Volume 9 to be her uncle, Fisherman Wilton.

In the TFG

One Doduo figure has been released.

Game data

Pokédex entries

This Pokémon was unavailable prior to Generation I.
Generation I
Red A bird that makes up for its poor flying with its fast foot speed. Leaves giant footprints.
Blue
Yellow Its short wings make flying difficult. Instead, this Pokémon runs at high speed on developed legs.
Stadium A Pokémon with two heads. More skilled at running than flying, it is capable of racing at speeds over 60 mph.
Generation II
Gold By alternately raising and lowering its two heads, it balances itself to be more stable while running.
Silver It races through grassy plains with powerful strides, leaving footprints up to four inches deep.
Crystal It lives on a grassy plain where it can see a long way. If it sees an enemy, it runs away at 60 mph.
Stadium 2 By alternately raising and lowering its two heads, it balances itself to be more stable while running.
Generation III
Ruby Doduo's two heads never sleep at the same time. Its two heads take turns sleeping, so one head can always keep watch for enemies while the other one sleeps.
Sapphire Doduo's two heads contain completely identical brains. A scientific study reported that on rare occasions, there will be examples of this Pokémon possessing different sets of brains.
Emerald Even while eating or sleeping, one of the heads remains always vigilant for any sign of danger. When threatened, it flees at over 60 miles per hour.

Trivia

  • Doduo's English name was originally going to be the same as the Japanese one, "Dodo".
  • Strangely, Doduo can learn Fly despite it having no wings that can be seen.

Origin

Despite its name, it seems like it has more in common with ostriches than dodos. It also seems to show some similarity to the extinct flightless bird, the Moa.

Name origin

Doduo's name seems to be a combination of dodo, an extinct, flightless bird, and duo, meaning a pair. Its Japanese name is simply Dodo.
